Stow-Munroe Falls Community Showcase is April 5, 6

The 14th biennial Stow-Munroe Falls Community Showcase will take place on April 5 and 6 at the Stow-Munroe Falls High School, 3227 E. Graham Road, Stow. Admission and parking are free.

"Everyone looks forward to it," says Doris Stewart, executive director of the Stow-Munroe Falls Chamber of Commerce. "It only happens every two years."

The popular showcase with something for all ages is presented by the Chamber, the cities of Stow and Munroe Falls and the Stow-Munroe Falls City Schools.

The hours of the showcase are April 5 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and April 6 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Stewart said 191 exhibitors signed up for the more than 200 booths that will be found throughout the high school in the commons and gymnasium.

Included in today's issue is a booklet with a list of exhibitors, guest appearances and entertainment.

Stewart notes two new entertainment offerings for the whole family this year will be the Ronald McDonald Magic Show and the always popular Bubble Lady.

She also encourages all those attending to be sure and register for the many prizes to be awarded, including the main door prize of a 50-inch big screen TV, a Samsung Chromebook donated by Brandon Heating and Air Conditioning and a one two-topping-pizza-a-week for 52 weeks donated by Teresa's Pizza in Stow. Many exhibitors also have drawings for prizes at their booths.

Concessions will be available in the food court.

Attendees can park in the high school parking lot; the Stow-Munroe Falls Lions Club will have golf carts traveling through the lot to offer assistance getting to and from cars. Also, parking will be available on Saturday beginning at 9 a.m. and on Sunday after 1 p.m. at the Riverwood Chapel just down the street at 1407 Fairchild Ave. in Kent. For those parking at the church, Stow-Glen Retirement Village will offer a shuttle to and from the showcase.
